Scout’s note

Abrams hits the ball at 106.475 on the EV95 scale — 61st percentile, just above the median — and his results land within 0.0314 of what that contact quality says they should be. Nothing owed, nothing borrowed. Drafted out of Alpharetta, Georgia, in the first round in 2019, he's 26 now with 33 home runs and 106 RBIs for Washington, fifth in the league in RBIs. No. 317 on the composite — well outside the board's top 20.

Note written Oct 5 · FVR scout (GLM-5.2)

Current signals

The read: Abrams is tracked, not flagged: an EV95 of 106.5 (61st percentile of the 406 qualified MLB bats we track; median 105.8) with results within 0.031 of what the physics support — nothing owed, nothing borrowed. The boards hunt mispricing, and his price is right. He sits No. 317 of 406 on the breakout composite; the board takes 20.

Cash and the tax hit are two different rulebooks and are never subtracted from one another — see the payroll board for his club, Washington Nationals.

The tax AAV above is his number under the CBA’s own rulebook, not the average we work out from Cot’s total. On a contract with deferred money the two come apart on purpose — and neither is subtracted from the other.
